Having missed spending Christmas day with his family for the past two years, Prince Harry is hoping that he'll be home for the holidays this year. Harry was last photographed with other members of the Royal Family during their traditional walk to Church on Christmas day in 2005 when he was training as an Officer Cadet at Sandhurst. As a new member of his regiment he spent Christmas 2006 on duty at his Windsor barracks where he and other solders enjoyed a special Christmas lunch. And of course last year Harry spent Christmas in Afghanistan.
After spending Christmas at Sandringham Prince Harry is reported to be flying to South Africa to spend New Years with Chelsy Davy once again. Harry's repeated absence from various family events and holidays in preference to spending time with his girlfriend and her family has caused some concern among Internet Royal Forum members that perhaps all is not well in the Wales' household. Its hard not to notice that, military duties or not, since the arrival of a stepmother Harry has been keeping away from many private family outings.
